Reb Volf once called me in shortly after I had arrived and gave me a “musar” talk. He then told me (and I paraphrase) that I obviously had a “sublime” (Gehoibiner) Neshama. When I asked him how he discerned that, he replied that it says that “אין הקדוש ברוך הוא בא בטרוני׳ עם בריאותיו וכו׳, ([paraphrasing] Hashem doesn’t make demands of his creations without giving him the tools with which to combat them), and since I have such a ״גראבן יצר הרע״ (coarse evil inclination) for sure Hashem has evened that off by giving me a געהויבנע נשמה. But he said it with such a smile and sincerity, that this carried me through my entire stay in Yeshiva.
